I hope everyone else has welcomed 2011 in as well as Chris and I did last night. Let me begin this by saying I am not a big go out and party on NYE kind of gal. I hate to be far from home for fear of all the non-sober drivers that are on the road. However, last night we spent the night with such fun people it was too hard to leave. We headed out to Ryan Mohr's house, one of Chris' advisors. His parents were kind enough to host an amazing NYE get together.
We loved hanging out with them. They live out where Chris and I would really like to end up in the next few years. They have a wonderful home and a very wonderful amount of land too. Mr. and Mrs. Morh are so brave they have 5 crazy boys...but they only make the party more fun! They also have some great family traditions on NYE. Every NYE they gather around and make hats. Now when I say make hats we are talking some really good hats. Non of this just put together little party hat stuff here....Chris and I felt like such new-bees! His mother has the best collection of hat making goodies. (she used to teach, you know how us teachers can gather goodies) Your hat was only as good as your imagination! We had such fun, I don't think I have ever seen a group ranging from 19 to 60 enjoying themselves in such a way!
